Hi,

The newly discovered bug uses Javascript code to create a loop and which makes it impossible to close the tab or the browser.

found a example site:
http://windows.microsoft.com.msf-help.info/_windows/62/

But Chrome dont let me open it again.

I made a small research and it was a variant of "Browlock Tech support scam".

It was described here: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=809775#c37

But like the news said, the site http://windows.microsoft.com.msf-help.info/_windows/62/ was able to freeze the latest chrome again. bad, that the site seems down again. so i cannot reproduce it

The Issue was described here Issue: 917493 but where is this report?
Source: https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/new-tech-support-scam-causes-chrome-browser-to-use-100-percent-of-the-cpu/
